Thankful Thursday 2/10/11

Thank you God for: 53. Friday night we had an awesome movie night at church, playing "Facing the Giants" and eating superbowl foods. :) I love those family nights at church. :)

54. A great night visiting friends for a birthday party. I got to see some of our friends that we haven't seen for awhile as they are our "church planting team" and have planted a church in their community. I miss them but they are so happy and excited over all that God is doing.

55. We had a great church service. We got to hear from someone just returning from Haiti and all the work he did there and also meeting his new son.

56. Sunday night we enjoyed a Superbowl party with awesome friends. :) I can't say I actually "watched" the game but I sure had a great time.

57. For friends...they are getting me through these winter months!

58. Monday was a tough day and we were all cheered by special treats that came in the mail. For me, a new book arrived that I had pre-ordered. For the kids, the new Hawk Nelson CD came. It is a really really awesome CD!

59. The snow waited to fall in earnest until Tyler and I were back from his college class on Tuesday. Then, it didn't really accumulate much. Spring will be here soon!

60. Even though oil prices are crazy high ($3.17 per gallon), we've been able to pay for the oil and keep the house warm.

61. Yesterday was a very productive school day!

62. Our taxes are done!!

63. I am still plugging away at reading the Bible in a Year. This may be the year!

About Me

Hi! Welcome! This blog represents as much of my own spiritual life journey as I can share publically as well as my reflections in looking back over what I have learned through the years. I am a wife, homeschooling mom of 7 kids and most importantly, a follower of Jesus. There is a peace that comes in knowing you are a friend of God, of knowing you are living His way and doing what He has created you to do. I am running hard after a life of peace.
